Samantha Smith-Jackson Obituary

Samantha Marie Smith- Jackson, passed away in Lincoln, DE on May 2, 2022. She was born on August 29, 1993, in Vernon, Connecticut. She is survived by her children, Kaiden Ruggiers, Elena Maloney, Landon Truitt, and Dalton Truitt, her mothers, Marge Jackson and her wife Lori Thulen, Virginia Smith and her wife Nancy Fox, her sister Heather Maurizio and her husband Justin Maurizio, and many step-siblings, Aunts, Cousins, and friends who loved her dearly. Samantha was an independent thinker who found her own path in life. She enjoyed sharing a good laugh, dancing, dogs and being in nature, including many summers on Cape Cod with her family where you would find her under a blanket watching the waves. Samantha was a proud mother and the glint in her children's eyes and the brightness of their smiles reflect the best parts of Samantha. Her eyes shone joy when sharing stories about how they were growing, what they were saying and sending pictures of them using the latest filter. A celebration of Samantha will occur at Bloomfield Congregational Church, 10 Wintonbury Ave. Bloomfield, CT 06002, on Thursday May 19th. Calling hours are from 5:00 – 6:00pm with a service immediately following. In lieu of flowers please make a donation to the Connecticut Humane Society or Wheeler Clinic.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.

I cannot even imagine your pain. To lose a child is unimaginable. Sending you my sympathies and condolences is such a small thing but it is with my whole heart.
